Hi Tim,

   How effective has this notification process been?  Have they been 
ignored? 
If they were ignored what process is then followed?  How effective do 
you feel the
"bogon" lists monitoring has been.  Do other RIRs have similar notification
procedures?  How effective have they been?

Thanks,
Gordon
